The instance dashboard presents an instance overview where you can see the following details:

  • Instance score

    Instance score

    1 – Indicates the current NetScaler instance score for the selected time duration. The final score is calculated as 100 minus total penalties. The graph displays the score ranges for the selected time duration.

    2 – Indicates the status of the NetScaler instance, such as Up, Down, and Out of Service.

    3 – Indicates the duration that the NetScaler instance is up and running.

    4 – Indicates the total network interfaces enabled and disabled for the instance. Click to view the details such as network interface name and the status (enabled or disabled).

    5 – Select the time duration from the list to view the instance details.

    6 – Displays the total issues and issue category of the NetScaler instance.

  • Key Metrics

    Click each tab to view the details. In each metric, you can view the average value and the difference value for the selected time.

    The following image is an example for HTTPS Req/Sec and the selected time duration is 1 hour. The value 692 is the average HTTPS Req/Sec for the 1-month duration and the value 20 is the difference value. In the graph, the first value is 139 and the last value is 119. The difference value is 139 – 119 = 20.

    Metrics

    You can view the following instance metrics in a graph format for the selected time duration:

    • CPU Usage – The average CPU % from the instance for the selected duration (displays for both packet CPU and for management CPU).

    • Memory Usage – The average memory usage % from the instance for the selected duration.

    • Disk Usage – The average disk space % from the instance for the selected duration.

    • Throughput – The average network throughput processed by the instance for the selected duration.

    • HTTPS request/sec – The average HTTPs requests received by the instance for the selected duration.

    • TCP connections – The average TCP connections established by the client and server for the selected duration.

    • SSL transactions – The average SSL transactions processed by the instance for the selected duration.
